Vice President Kamala Harris was pressed about her policy evolutions Thursday in her first interview since she became the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, sitting alongside her running mate, Tim Walz.
The highly anticipated interview, with CNN’s Dana Bash, came after pressure had been building for Harris to answer more questions from impartial journalists and fully sketch out how her vision differs from that of President Joe Biden. She has largely avoided doing either in the 39 days since he decided not to run for re-election and endorsed her, instead.
“I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective,” Harris said when she was asked about her policy evolutions, “is that my values have not changed.”
